Can A Patient Go Home Immediately After A Hip Replacement Surgery?

Yes. If you relieve them of any responsibility you can go home.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
It is possible to go home the very next day if you release the doctor and hospital from any liability whatsoever.
But it is in your best interests if you stay there for 3 days after the surgery as it is a major surgery and post operative complications need to be monitored after the surgery. Also, you will be able to get a better rest and a sterile environment at the hospital thus reducing the chances of any post operative infections considerably.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.
